"How does this series apply to tutoring? Not every parent can afford to stay home all day or stay home with their child in home school. You can give your child supplemental education to what they already receive in a regular school, and it only has to be about an hour a day or even less. However much you feel that you're able to give. What I've found is I've tutored students who were behind who went to regular schools, that just giving them half an hour a day of these types of methods that I'm going to show you, really brought them all the way back up past the average to the front of their class. What I also found is that a lot of students go year to year, they get pushed through, and they miss the very basic phonics and math basic skills that we're going to learn here in this series. It's very simple. Any person can do it. Practically, all you need is 6th grade education to be able to teach these things, or even less. I'm going to show you from the very beginning the building blocks of literacy and of math."
